BeachBoundB
ooks is pleased to be
coordinating a Book Blast for the delightful children's book w
ritten by Valarie Budayr
and illustrated by Michael Welply, Dragons are
Real. The blast will run May 2 - 4, 2016.

What if I told you that all
of the fairy tales, myths and
legends that have been told about dragons over the years
are WRONG? What if I told you
that Dragons are indeed REAL and that they are different
than you've ever imagined? Did
you know that Dragons are the master of disguises? Did y
ou know that they love sugar
and sweets (at unacceptable levels) and will do anything for t
reats? Award winning
author Valarie Budayr brings us this fairly true story based on
her childhood friendship
with a REAL live Dragon.

Take a peek
